I just gotta get a digital camera! Start with the Berg catalog and info sheets. Buy the Bill Fisher book: How to Hotrod Volkswagen Engines by Bill Fisher published by H. P. Books, Tucson, AZ, 1970 ISBN 0-912656-03-4 (excellent book, well written and researched) Get familiar with your engine and its construction. There is no better manual than the Bentley: Volkswagen Official Service Manual Type 3 Fastback and Squareback 1968-1973 published by Robert BentleykÙ<Þdge, Mass, 1974 ISBN 0-8376-0057-X / LPV 997 383 / VSQU (excellent book, complete and well written) In my opinion the only way to install a full flow filter in a type 3 engine is in the process of a full blown engine rebuild. You cannot do this "live" like you can on a beetle. I have a drawing with the dimensions that are required to machine the rear mount crossbar for clearance for the new oil pump cover. That drawing is $1 mailed to your door, or I can machine your crossbar for you for $30 plus shipping.
